GATE LLC and Chapin Manufacturing announced today that they have entered an exclusive distribution agreement for CFValves(TM). As of May 1, 2009, Chapin will become the exclusive distributor in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico for all CFValves(TM) used on backpack and compression sprayers and on ATV-mounted spray equipment.

In conjunction with this new agreement, GATE LLC is launching the next generation of its CFValve(TM). The new CFValve(TM) provides enhanced performance and more favorable pricing to the end user.

As part of this agreement, Chapin will add the CFValve(TM) as standard equipment for its Chapin Tree and Turf Pro line of backpack sprayers that Chapin will distribute through its ever-expanding network. Additionally, as part of this agreement, Chapin will assume sales and service of CFValves(TM) to GATE's North American backpack and compression sprayer customers. GATE will continue to provide sales and service to their backpack and compression sprayer customers outside North America, academia, as well as research and development organizations in the U.S. GATE's customers in other industries will not be affected by this agreement.

"With Chapin as our North American distributor for the CFValve(TM) we can now deliver the safety benefits to the end-user and the environment as well as substantially improve the efficacy of spraying to a larger number of customers in North America. We have decades of experience in spray technology globally, and we are certain that the CFValve(TM), combined with Chapin's leading edge spray equipment, will quickly become recognized as the North American standard for quality, safety and environmental stewardship," John Newton, President GATE LLC

"Chapin has already delivered many thousands of its quality backpacks with the CFValve(TM) included; we are familiar with the benefits of its accuracy. The addition of the CFValves(TM) to our broad line of backpack sprayers is the natural next step to solidify our leadership position in North America. With the CFValve(TM), the Chapin backpack and compression sprayers will ensure accuracy in spraying, optimal use of chemicals and will protect the environment and the end user from over-spraying," Jim Campbell, CEO of Chapin International.
